I've already given the walkovers for the Lyon games for this week.

Would everyone in Group A prefer if I just do all the walkovers for the rest of the league now or just give the walkovers in the weeks they occur so people know how many games they've left to play in a certain gameweek?

I think it would probably be better to do all the walkovers now so people know how many games they have on teams around them, particularly if they're chasing a team or a spot above them.

It Still hurts .......

Lads I finally got my broadband sorted as of yesterday, I've no problem taking back over Lyon and playing all the matches needed to make up.

I know it's a lot of games so if you'd just prefer to write them off then I understand.

It's 14 games to play so it'll be an awful lot plus some people mightn't be on until the weekend to play you. Only 4 games left after this week too

Oh it's grand so I didn't know the league was so close to finishing, just thought I'd give the offer anyway seen as it was me who dropped out initially.

Yup my bad, wasnt at the home house last weekend so didnt get a chance to play the league. I'll be on all night friday, gone the saturday but free then all day sunday and monday. Apologies if people are waiting on me

Cienciano · 22-02-2018 4:56pm

I'm finally up to date with my fixtures. Feels good man

Colemania · 22-02-2018 5:11pm

I only noticed the other day that Besiktas got in Vagner Love to replace Tosun!

Wilberto · 22-02-2018 6:27pm

I'm sure they both had a game organised with me but I wasn't able to get on again recently so one game in their respective backlogs is my fault. :pac:

Should be available tonight, Saturday and Sunday anyway. Friday could be dodgy what with Cork City playing their first home game of the season. :pac:

I'm actually happy with Southampton's dealings. I never really got to play with VVD so I don't miss him at all (plus we tend to defend in numbers anyway so he's not all that important (when he did play anyway! :pac:)).

Carrillo I'm definitely happy with though. Tall lad up front with Long (also quite the physical presence himself) playing off him. I like playing with that combination.

Ajax here. Will be around Friday and Saturday afternoons, Sunday evening, and Monday day til about 7pm. After that I should be online a lot for the rest of the week. Will PM people I have fixtures with to try and arrange times.

Pity you didn't get to use VVD. He starts for me in myclub, a beast in the air

Cienciano · 22-02-2018 11:31pm

Got another black ball, Pique. Weak link is my LB, kieran gibbs

brianregan09 · 24-02-2018 10:43pm

I'll be on before and after the cup final tommorow if Leipzig or Shaktar are around

Exclamation Marc · 25-02-2018 10:03pm

Torino here. Should be on tomorrow if Leipzig, Shakhtar or Valencia are around

Colemania · 27-02-2018 12:00am

Finally got around to updating the top scorers!

They're up on the website now but because I kept ye all waiting, I'll post them here too

IncognitoMan · 27-02-2018 1:48am

28 goals for Jonas :eek:

Wilberto · 27-02-2018 9:10am

Shane Long the top Irish goalscorer.

:pac:

Cienciano · 27-02-2018 3:20pm

Though I was doing ok with 8 goals in group A. Then I scrolled down

Colemania · 27-02-2018 3:27pm

I know it's been stated previously and maybe I'm picking this up wrong, but it does seem like interest in this league is way down compared to the first one. I realise maybe people are busy with work and life over the past few months compared to the end of last year so this may lend to this also.

So in saying this, we'll properly brainstorm ideas ahead of the next league to keep it fresh and to be honest, I think with 10 teams per group, it's really drawing out the league. Maybe something a bit shorter and therefore fit in possibly a new original league every 2 months/6 weeks?

I know with this league, people didn't like the teams they got and some teams had awful luck with form so I can understand why the willingness to get online to play games wouldn't be so high.

Also, we need to do something about these poor connections. I'd say a good fifth of the people in the league have a poor connection often and it's not fair on their opponents or themselves to be honest. I know at times this can't be helped and I like having a good group for this league but if there's a possible fix for the internet connection, e.g. using home plugs to plug directly into the PS4, then use it. Also, I notice a lot of people are struggling through a game with bad connection and end up with an unfavourable result because of it. If the connection is really that bad, pause the game and arrange to reschedule.

Lastly, I'm not going to name and shame but I have to issue this warning to all. I have experienced in my group and heard from others in Group B that there have been occasions of foul play during games. What I mean by this is 1 team taking the lead and then passing around the back and/or going all out defence. Another example being players through on goal and hacked down by sliding tackles on every occasion. This needs to be cut out altogether. It completely ruins the game for me and on the occasion this happened to me, I was absolutely livid.......over a feckin computer game!!

Don't ruin it for everyone else anyway, we all want to enjoy games!

A lot of high scoring wins against Nice (Sorry Jipo) there are distorting it massively!

Just a quick question, is everyone in the group chat? have the app on their phone? Tried to get games going friday/sunday and last night but not sure if the lads are on it so might not be getting the shout outs
